I have been dabbling in leatherwork for years, but never took it seriously or to the next level. Recently, I've found I have more time on my hands, and I want to get serious about improving my skills. Years ago, my father built me a great workbench to put in my tack room, but I just had tools randomly stored in the drawers. I've taken the time to sort things out and grouped my tools into "categories" (for a lack of a better term).
Here's my question to all of you...
How would you arrange these "categories" in your bench drawers?
Sharpening
Measure
Cutting
Skiving
End Punches
Press Punches
Hole Punches
Tooling
Dying
Gluing
Zipper Setters
Stitching (Hand)
Thread (both hand & machine)
Edger's & Groover's
Burnishing
Hardware Setting
Miscellaneous (like a thread spool holder, belt trimmer, etc.)
Stitching Pony's (small item only, not my large one)
Keep in mind that I have hardware and stamping tools in dedicated spots on top of my bench.
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!
